Temp 1 is normally the CPU temperature and 36*C is well within the normal operating range.

Are you having problems with the way the machine is running?

53* is a bit hot...even for a laptop. Are the vents clean? You might consider a Laptop Cooler.

A laptop cooler should drop the temperature enough to keep you from having problems. Laptops and notebooks tend to run a little warmer than desktop machines, but a good rule of thumb is to get (and keep) the CPU temperature below 50*C.

By keeping the vents clean and maintaining good air circulation under the machine. A laptop cooler does the latter...it's up to you to keep the vents clear of dust bunnies... :whistling:
